Summary - 36 COOKSWELL ROAD SHILLINGSTONE BLANDFORD FORUM DT11 0QZ
1 bed 1 bath Land
Private riverside acreage with fishing rights and easy village access.
2.37 acres (0.96 ha) freehold riverside pasture with brook and river frontage
A rare riverside parcel in Beremarsh, just outside Shillingstone: 2.37 acres of level-to-gently undulating pasture with direct frontage to the River Stour and a north-side brook. The plot offers fertile loam over valley gravel (ALC Grade 4), mature willow and poplar screening, natural water supply, and roughly 162 metres of single-bank fishing rights — attractive for smallholders, amenity use or land-banking.
Practical access is already established with an unrestricted right of access to the council-maintained highway and a small hardstanding area suitable for two cars. Mains water lies in the highway nearby and the land has historically formed part of an arable rotation; it is currently fallow and ready for grazing, conservation, or other rural uses subject to planning.
Buyers should note material considerations: the title is freehold but the land is situated in Flood Zone 3 (high flood risk). The vendor will erect the boundary between points A–C, after which ownership and maintenance of that boundary become the buyer’s responsibility. The land is not in an AONB, NVZ or a conservation area and there are no public rights of way crossing the parcel.
This is a straightforward rural holding with immediate amenity value — wildlife, fishing, and scenic outlooks — and with limited built development potential without planning consent. It will suit someone seeking a riverside smallholding, private recreational land, or a long-term countryside investment.
